I have Bose acoustimas5 now and need a center channel speaker... Do you think this would pair well? I bought a Bose Jewel cube center speaker &#x1F621;

The Definitive Technology center channel will sound great and will allow for dialogue to be easily understood. You will also find that it provides much clearer treble and punchy upper bass than the Bose. You will probably notice the limitations of the Bose speakers. You'll probably find yourself wanting to ditch the Bose and get a pair of Definitive Tech ProMonitor 800's or similar :). In general though, you should "timber match" a center channel with the main channel speakers. The Definitive Tech will sound different than the Bose. Better, but different.

Mr Clark I am not able to answer your question at this time. We are working on getting our new system set up and are making sure our speaker system will match up. I have found that contacting R/S Cust Service to be helpful with some of our concerns in setting up our system. If you don't get the answer to your question there, I have found that local audio shops can also be helpful. BC

That speaker is designed as a tweeter to be used as a replacement in a crossover equipped Speaker. It only handles high frequencies and cannot cover the middle ranges that a Bose acoustimass cube handles. It.would require its own enclosure and could be branched into a Bose system but it would be very awkward and cause an imbalance with the system with excessive high freqeuncies. Why would you want to incorporate this into an Acoustmass system? In my own case the Pyles were used to replace the hard to find crumby tweeters in an old Radioshack Mach 2 speaker. They were a better replacement then the original tweeter, and with a little drilling to widen the holes in the speakers this was an almost indestructible super buy -as they were only $10 each and I'll never have to replace them. ONCE again they are NOT really compatible with a bose acoustimass system!!!!!

My center Bose speaker is just hooked up to my surround sound amplifier. I have the built-in TV speakers turned off. Also, I find many programs easier to understand with the center volume turned up a bit.

I returned this speaker and don't have the pairing info. Hope you can get it off of their website or something

The speaker is an excellent center channel and, in my house, compliments 4 high end Klipsch speakers off a 5.1 channel receiver. Not sure if you use it as a part of a speaker pair, whether you will tip the sound range in the other direction. I would suggests looking for two new, well-rounded speakers that would better compliment your sub-woofer or upgrade to a receiver with a center channel.

You have 5 separate channels on the back of the speaker. You could only connect the center channel but it would be a waste of the other speakers enclosed. There are much better choices if you are only looking for a center channel speaker.

I've seen people use this speaker as a center speaker; however, I do not recommend it. I suggest you purchase a speaker designed specifically for the center channel. If you must have a center, in-wall speaker... I suggest the "Polk Audio Dual 5.25" Two-Way Center Channel In-Wall Speaker."

It would be fine to use a center speaker but I would rather recommend this speaker as it is designed to be a center...Polk Audio 255C-RT In-wall / In-ceiling center channel speaker

Bose keeps wattage ratings on speakers a secret. I am driving this Acoustismass center channel speaker with a 140W per channel Sony surround receiver and it performs flawlessly on the high end. Hope this helps.

I own 3 pair of the MC60 they sound great! I assume, since they have similar specs, this would be a better sonic match than say adding another brand in ceiling. Is this for center channel? If so definitely fine choice as it's typically voice so no other speaker to compare it to in the system.

I found this speaker to be difficult to connect to Bluetooth and unreliable as to its functioning. I sent it back. I would say the same to you.

I am using one for my center channel in a 7.1 setup Works great for this and provides nice chrisp sound quality. I am very happy with this product.

the bose sound system cube is a better/louder quality.... but then you need to bring a solar charger or power source to keep it going. I sacrifice volume level for use-ability

Well as indicated in the description, it is indeed a center channel speaker. Good luck and enjoy it!

In my experience with the Bose cubes, they receive their signals from the subwoofer of the Bose system, not directly from the receiver. This sub is not designed to work in that way, so I would have to say the cubes would not be working in the way they were designed to work. However, I have never tried to drive the Bose cube speakers directly from the receiver/amp. This is a GOOD sub, though.
